RUNNING DECODE ON THE Z3-MVE-20
Encoder 1 and Encoder 2 of the Z3-MVE-20 are completely independent channels, and the user interfaces for
each must be accessed through separate IP addresses. The 1RU system can be configured as two encoders,
two decoders or one channel of each.
Decode and display can be demonstrated by feeding an encoded stream generated by Encoder 1 of the Z3-
MVE-20 to Encoder 2 of the Z3-MVE-20. This decode example requires an Ethernet cable, a hub/router, a
BNC-to-BNC cable, an SDI to HDMI converter, an HDMI cable, and a monitor with HDMI input.
Follow the steps described in Section 6.0 to connect the Z3-MVE-20 and to generate an output stream
(1)
(in this case, a TS stream to 225.1.2.3:8888) as is done in steps (1)-(12).
Connect the Ethernet port of “Encoder 2” of the Z3-MVE-20 to the same hub/router which “Encoder
(2)
1” is connected to.
Connect “ASI/SDI Out” of the Z3-MVE-20 with a BNC-to-BNC cable to an SDI monitor or “SDI In” of the
(3)
SDI to HDMI converter.
If necessary, connect “HDMI Out” of the SDI to HDMI converter with an HDMI cable to “HDMI In” of a
(4)
monitor.
The control PC should still have the user interface of the Z3-MVE-20 Encoder 1 accessed. If the
(5)
encoder is still running from the previous demo, click “Stop Encoder”.
(3) Connect ASI/SDI Out to SDI->HDMI Converter
(1) “Encoder 1” already connected
(2) Connect “Encoder 2” to router/hub
